Job Summary
To support our extraordinary teams who build great products and contribute to our growth, we’re looking to add a Senior Thermal Systems Engineer located in Littleton, MA.
Reporting to the Product Manager the Senior Thermal Systems Engineer will own the end-to-end architecture, analysis, validation, and deployment of direct-to-chip (D2C) cooling systems used to cool high-TDP CPUs/GPUs/accelerators. They will be the technical leader partnering with Product Management, Mechanical/Electrical Engineering, Manufacturing, Quality, Reliability, and key customers to deliver robust, scalable products that meet performance, reliability, and cost targets.
What a typical day looks like:
Own thermal architecture & modeling
Define system-level thermal requirements (TDP range, ΔT, coolant temperature, flow rate, pressure drop, acoustic & power budgets).
Apply first principles in fluid dynamics and heat transfer to analyze design concept thermal performance
Build and validate 1D/3D models (e.g., FloEFD, Icepak, MacroFlow, ANSYS Fluent, COMSOL) for cold plates, manifolds, quick-disconnects (QDs), pumps, and CDUs.
Perform sensitivity trade-offs (flow distribution, fin geometry, microchannel optimization, TIM selection, manifold topology).
Design liquid cooling subsystems
Specify and refine cold plates, CDUs, manifolds, hoses/QDs, reservoirs, filters, sensors, and controls.
Collaborate with ME/EE on mechanical stack-up, materials, corrosion mitigation (galvanic compatibility), and leak risk reduction.
Define DFX (DFM/DFA/DFT) and lead EVT/DVT/PVT from prototypes to mass production.
Validate and qualify
Develop test plans for thermal performance, pressure integrity, leak detection, long-term reliability (HALT/HASS), and contamination control (particulates, biogrowth).
Execute lab and rack-scale testing (pump curves, flow balance, ΔP mapping, heat load emulation, transient behavior).
Drive failure analysis and corrective actions (FMEAs, 8D/PPS).
Partner across the business
Work with Product Management on PRDs, roadmaps, and business cases.
Support manufacturing process development (leak/pressure test stations, purge and fill, cleanliness criteria) and supplier selection/qualification.
Engage with customers: define requirements, run pilots, analyze fleet telemetry, and support deployment at scale.
The experience we’re looking to add to our team:
BS/MS in Mechanical Engineering or Aerospace Engineering or related field (PhD a plus).
5+ years experience in thermal design/validation for high-power electronics (preferably data center/server/HPC).
Excellent first principles knowledge in fluid dynamics, thermodynamics, and heat transfer
Proven expertise in liquid cooling, including CFD, pressure drop/flow modeling, and thermal metrology.
Hands-on with lab instrumentation (flow meters, pressure transducers, thermocouples/RTDs, DAQ, leak detectors) and test automation (Python, LabVIEW, or similar).
Experience bringing products from EVT → DVT → PVT → ramp, including DFX and supplier engagement.
Excellent technical communication and documentation skills.
